Some footage of the aftermath of rioting and looting in north London last night (6th August 2011).
Background to rioting
On Thursday, a man called Mark Duggan was shot dead by the Police in Tottenham in north east London. He is the latest of several people to have been killed following encounters with the police.
For two days, the whole area was cut off while police carried out investigations. On Saturday afternoon, local residents rallied at the police station to demand answers to what happened.
The rally was peaceful but it seems there was somekind of incident. Rumours are circulating that the police may have struck a young girl. In any case, the whole area kicked-off into rioting and looting throughout the night.
Looting also spread to nearby Wood Green with a car set ablaze and some looting
